Sidus Mortuorum are a band from Ukraine that plays an old school form of death metal and this is a re-issue of their 2012 album "Coffin Slaves" which was re-issued in 2015 by Envenomed Music.

Horror movie samples start off the album before going into a heavier direction that is also very heavily rooted in the early 90's along with some death metal growls and melodic guitar leads a few seconds later while all of the musical instruments have a very powerful sound to them.

When the music speeds up a great amount of blast beats can be heard while the riffs also bring in a great amount of dark sounding melodies along with the songs also bringing in a great mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts and all of the music sounds like it could of easily been recorded and released more than 25 years ago.

Sidus Mortuorum plays a style of death metal that is very heavily rooted in the early 90's, the production sounds very old school yet professional at the same time while t he lyrics cover death themes.

In my opinion Sidus Mortuorum are a very great sounding old school death metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this re-issue. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Boneyard Dwellers" "Re-Animated In Morgue" and "Dawn Over Prypyat". 8 out of 10.
